Alpha France, 3 in 1 (XXX)

Has anyone checked out Alpha France's porn releases, "3 XXX films on one disc" etc? These are french PAL dvd's.

Some interesting stuff there, Traci Lords titles, Satisfiers of Alpha Blue, Cafe Flesh double feature.. BUT the individual running times on the covers are listed as about 1 hour per film, which seems REALLY dubious. Have they shortened the films to make them fit on one disc?

The cover of Deep Throat / Satisfiers.. / Devil in Mr Jones as an example:

Re: Alpha France, 3 in 1 (XXX)

If I have interpreted the cover art correctly, one of the Traci Lords triple features has LUST IN THE FAST LANE, BREAKING IT and TALK DIRTY TO ME 3, with english audio. This is actually the one release that interests me the most, and I will be ordering it as soon as someone confirms it's not fucked up.. The earlier french dvd of TDTM3 (aka. Splash X) was dubbed so I hadn't picked it up. Lust in the Fast Lane should also be interesting.

Too bad the one with It's My Body / Love Bites / Educating Mandy only has french audio.

And indeed, they also have lot of euro stuff which I forgot to mention.. I believe Xploited has been selling these in the US.

Re: Alpha France, 3 in 1 (XXX)

I've skipped a lot of the French releases, the same dvds pop up in newsgroups in English. However, I have a copy of BREAKING IT which was ripped from the French triple feature. It was in English, but that doesn't do much to prove it for sure because I've seen the French language releases pop up with the original English audio re-dubbed onto the film. By fucked up do you mean edited? I can tell you that that if the Damiano 3 in 1 times are correctly listed, then SATISFIERS OF ALPHA BLUE is cut down, but I'm not sure what the PAL to NTSC conversion is.

What's THE DEVIL IN MR. JONES? I can't find any info on that one anywhere. A retitle?

Re: Alpha France, 3 in 1 (XXX)

So it seems Devil in Mr Jones is FLESH AND FANTASY by G. Damiano... and that Alpha France's ALPHA BLUE contains the fisting (edited from US DVD) but is cut down to 1 hr.. Now THAT's what I call fucked up! PAL/NTSC conversion can't be more than a couple of minutes in this case.

Re: Alpha France, 3 in 1 (XXX)

I've got two of the Lahaie discs, one of them a double, they are good quality, and some of the best 'golden era' releases you can find out there on DVD (when are Blue Underground gonna give the 42nd St Dirty Red Carpet treatment to some golden era titles???).

I don't care what language they are in, coz sex is a universal language.

Re: Alpha France, 3 in 1 (XXX)

Has anyone got a line on Alpha France releases on DVD? In other words, where they can be purchased online? I know DiabolikDVD stocks some and Xploited still has some in their stocks, but there appear to be many releases neither of them offers.

Re: Alpha France, 3 in 1 (XXX)

Thanks for all the replies! If anyone else knows of other vendors, I'd still appreciate your sharing them.

I've never been clear on why some of the titles - mostly the Brigitte Lahaies - are a single film, while others are double and triple features for the same price. Now I'm guessing the single-film releases are the more popular titles (left untampered with) while the edited triple-features are less well-remembered (and therefore cut up)?
